Against the Tide of Years

Following the cataclysmic 'Event' that hurled the island of Nantucket back to the Bronze Age, the fledgling Republic of Nantucket has striven to rebuild a semblance of modern civilization amidst a primitive world. This sequel to 'Island in the Sea of Time' continues the saga, pitting the technologically advanced but resource-limited Nantucketers against a new, insidious threat. William Walker, a renegade U.S. Coast Guard officer who, like the Nantucketers, was transported through time, has abandoned the Republic's ideals. Instead, he embarks on a ruthless campaign of conquest, leveraging his knowledge of modern technology to forge a brutal empire. As Walker's influence spreads, reaching as far as Greece where he recruits ambitious local kinglets, the people of Nantucket face a grave dilemma. To prevent the ancient world from being irrevocably plunged into an era of unprecedented bloodshed and technological tyranny, they must confront Walker head-on, engaging in a desperate war that will determine the fate of history itself. This high-stakes conflict forces Nantucket to use its advanced capabilities not for peaceful progress, but for survival against a foe who mirrors their own strengths with destructive intent.
